How To Secure Cheap Airline Tickets

We all know travelling can be expensive but saving a bit of money here and there can make all the difference. So, we’ve put together 4 of our best tips to help you get the best flight prices!

1. Book as early as possible

 

Plane tickets tend to jump in price the closer the date of departure so booking as early as possible will ensure you get the lowest and best rates. Studies show that tickets are the cheapest 6 weeks before you travel.

2. Be strategic with the days you fly in/out

 

Weekends often tend to be the most expensive time to fly in and out so try and avoid those days. Instead, Tuesdays are traditionally when you can find the best deals on flights from Australia, as well as Wednesdays and Thursdays. You could also look at booking really early morning or overnight flights if you’re really keen to save as these tend to be least popular.

3. Be flexible

 

Flexibility is one of the easiest ways to lower your airfare costs. If you’re not afraid of skipping on convenience for cheaper tickets opt for connecting flights or alternative airports as these are often significantly reduced in price.

4. Use flight comparison websites

 

Websites such as Skyscanner and Webjet will do all the research for you and help you find the cheapest flights and the best deals.

5. Clear your browser history

 

Sneaky cookies embedded by travel sites can identify that you’ve visited their site beforehand in some cases hike up their prices as they know you have an interest in purchasing. So, use incognito mode or be sure to clear the cache each time you search.

Remember to make sure you’re aware of any extra fees that may be hidden!
